Nohachi's suspension ramblings thread

[NoHachi]

Quote: The end goal of all of this, would be to use the suspension geometry for roll resistance rather than spring rate, so I could run as soft a spring as possible without having the car tip over through the corners.

I don't understand roll centres fully..but enough to know that my simple model of roll couple based on the distance between the geometrical roll centre and the COG is too simple. If tried doing some stuff based on force based roll centres but decided it was over my head. So these days, I just don't worry about it too much.

Another thing that changes is the relationship between the strut and the LCA which will change your camber curve. Any effect here will have a lot of impact on overal performance.
